Cayman Dream - Rum Point
Cayman Dream sits directly oceanfront in Rum Point along the north coast. Featuring Caribbean style architecture and a sizable oceanfront pool, Cayman Dream is a great getaway for small families, or a pair of vacationing couples.
The sandy beach is perfect for long walks or just lounging by the water with a novel. The shallows offer excellent fishwatching, with plenty of marine life for guests to discover!
A privacy wall keeps Cayman Dream quietly tucked away from neighboring properties, so you can relax, kick back, and enjoy your beach retreat without interruption. A sandy elevated backyard also offers excellent ocean views.
Heavy landscaping, circular driveway and a gingerbread Caribbean design provide a great first impression. Vaulted ceilings, quality kitchen and a full-width screen porch keep repeat guests coming back each year.

Beach Notes
The entire island is only 22 miles wide from west to east, so you are never too far from anywhere on Grand Cayman. The homes on the oceanfront in Rum Point offer great reef protected snorkeling. The beaches usually have plenty of white sand, but also can have spots of rocky “ironshore” with natural rock formations. The closer you get to Rum Point usually the sandier the beach, as well as the swimming. Either way, with the abundant marine life you will want to pool shoes or fins for foot protection.
It is important to mention that the water near the reef in this area gets quite deep and can have currents. We recommend either kayaking or staying shallow in the Rum Point area for this reason.
The big draw to this area is the proximity to the Rum Point Club, a public beach club that offers a fantastic barefoot beach, water sports, a restaurant and bar, gift shop and pick-up beach volleyball games. Also near Rum Point is the Kaibo, a beach restaurant, bar, and marina
Lastly, we have 2 large resorts in the east end (Morritts and The Reef) that offer manicured beaches plus restaurants, a grocery store, liquor store, gift shops, a Subway sandwich shop, and a coffee/pastry shop. These two resorts also offer scuba, snorkel trips, jet ski rentals, windsurfering, kiteboarding, ocean front pools and bar service.

Cayman Dream is a Dream Come Trueout of 5Reviewed by Brenda aka Water Girl Dreaming on 11/24/2017 Our trip was so special, partly due to staying at this lovely home. It has island charm & cheerful colors with all the comforts of home. It was spotless & clean. It is larger than it looks in the photos, and has room for at least 6 people. The bedrooms are on opposite sides of the living areas for privacy. The beach had debris that had washed up, but the first day I cleaned it and there were only a few stray bottle caps that washed up the rest of the time. The beach is not smooth and sandy, so water shoes are a must (buy at Red Sail in Rum Point). Avoid swimming towards the neighbor to the right (east) as there is a dangerous current.
Didi and Jim were very helpful as we went through the booking process. Upon arrival the app had the wrong key code for the lock box. I called our on-island manager and within minutes she got us the correct code.
Because this is a relatively small island, we thought we'd be bored at the end of our 9-day stay. Not so. There are a lot of attractions and activities around the island. Once we got used to driving on the left, it's easy to get around.
Highlights: White Sand Water Sports delivered stand-up paddle boards right to the house. And we used White Sand for a trip to Sting Ray City - an awesome experience! For groceries try Fosters in Bodden Town. Great selection. There's a liquor store near Fosters called Jacques something or other, but there's one closer near Morritts on the north east in the same strip mall as the Italian Kitchen. We ate there, no water view, but a nice place. My wahoo almondine was soooo good. The Lighthouse is a good choice for a special dinner. Over-the-Edge is a casual place with good breakfasts, lunch or diner, and beautiful water views. Our favorite dinner was on the porch at Rum Point Restaurant. Tukka is good, too. Great service everywhere & friendly people. Everyone accepts US dollars/credit cards, which made it easy. We'd definitely come back & stay at the same house. Wonderful experience, great trip!!
Dream Vacayout of 5Reviewed by Nancy on 05/13/2017 This property is the ideal location for anyone wanting to chill in style. Beautiful views of the ocean from poolside. On my daily walks I found conch shells in the shallows - with live conch in them! We didn't snorkel here so I can't say anything about it but other review said it was outstanding. You are a short drive from Rum Point and Starfish Point - both are excellent locations to snorkel and see wildlife. I highly recommend picking up groceries on your way in to the property - it's a bit of a drive to a decent grocer. Food on the island is a bit pricey so we picked up stuff for light meals and snacks and dined out in the evening but you could cook everything at home. We didn't see anyone on the beach until the day before we left - it truly is a private beach and we all enjoyed the screened in back porch whenever it rained or we needed a break from the sun. So peaceful and beautiful and the home is very comfortable. We felt right at home. The day we explored the 7 Mile Beach area showed the sharp contrast - it was packed with people! We would definitely stay here again. I highly recommend Cayman Dream. Manager Response:Thank you for the kind words. Cayman Dream is a lovely home and a great location. Please come again!!! Cayman Dreamsout of 5Reviewed by A.T. on 04/09/2017 Great accommodation - had everything we needed Weather a bit windy Didn't realize that there was a ferry over to the west until the end, however found some great restaurants Cayman dream has amazing styleout of 5Reviewed by Todd on 03/16/2017 We had a great time and would love to come back there was tho some glass on the beach which could have cut someone but it was very clean after the gardener came. We had some fun games and built some rock towers but there were some bugs. The pool was a little cold but refreshing so thank you very much for a great stay and we loved the little walkways a great house for a family of 5
Away from the Madness of 7 Mile Beachout of 5Reviewed by RG on 04/16/2016 My mother has lived in Cayman since 1978 so I know a little about the island. When some friends asked if we would go with them on a week long trip, we selected Cayman Dream as our base of operations! What a delightful place! Just a short drive to my favorite restaurant, Over the Edge, we really enjoyed the seclusion that this property offers while still being easily accessible. Price was also a consideration.
Wonderful, Cute Cayman Cottage!out of 5Reviewed by Bonnie on 08/06/2016 Wow we were shocked how cute this place was when we arrived. The landscaping out front created a wonderful buffer - this home lies on a deep property and we never heard traffic drive by! The screened porch across the back of the home was a wonderful surprise that we enjoyed every night (didn't notice the porch in the pictures). The pool is just large enough and the kids spent a good amout of time there when they were not roaming the beach. The snorkeling was fantastic right off the beach and we swam many different fish every time out there. We ventured to rum point on several occasions for lunches and afternoon swim and sun...
Highly recommended for families with children or two adult couples even.
We will come again soon! BR and JR
“Wonderful Family Vacation Home”out of 5Reviewed by KCRUISIN on 12/12/2015 My family stayed here the week after Christmas. We arrived to the home and it was clean and mostly as described. The layout was exactly what we like, open! It did have two bedrooms. One with a very large master bathroom. The other bathroom was the one for the main living space. We had read that it had pull out couches which were not the case, but we made it work. The kitchen was small but had everything we needed. It would be nice to have a gas grill but the one they had mostly did the job. The living/dining room area was fabulous to hang out in as a family. The best part of the house is the outdoor space. The have a HUGE screened in patio with couch and table. The views are beautiful and they do provide plenty of outdoor seating. The pool was ok. It was a bit cold as it is not heated. The adults did not really use it and even some of the kids found it to cold to use. The waterfront is gorgeous to look at but obviously on this side of the island it is not a swimmable beach. It is good location as it is close to Star Fish Point, Stingray City, and Rum Point. It is not near Seven Mile Beach but we knew that when booking and that is why the rental price is as affordable as it is! All in all we would stay here again.

The property was "as advertised". I recommend the location. The property was a good value for the price paid.
“Cayman Dream”out of 5Reviewed by Frances on 06/08/2013 We rented Cayman Dream in early June of 2013. We were very happy with the house. It's exactly as the pictures show. The kitchen is very well appointed and the grounds are kept very nicely. It's located in a nice quiet area with very little traffic. Our only complaint with the house was the phone/wifi. It was out for three of the six days that we were there. With our children back in the states, we felt really out of touch. We truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying there.

“Amazing as always”out of 5Reviewed by Verified Reviewer on 07/07/2012 We try to go to Grand Cayman every year and we always stay at this house. We absolutely love it! Our favorite part is that the pool faces the ocean and there is always a nice wind blowing. Of course the house is nicely decorated and has all the amenities we need. I highly recommend Cayman Dream.
